1854 PR 64 NGC. A rare Seated dollar and seldom seen in any
grade as a business strike. Proofs are of the greatest rarity and
importance. Apparently, the vast majority of this issue was sent to
the Orient to be used as "Trade dollars," and never returned to
this country. For these reasons the proofs are needed by modern
collectors as they can serve as a substitute for the rare business
strikings. Both sides of this choice example are a watery
golden-gray with a slight amount of contrast that is limited to the
obverse. Population: 4 in 64, none finer (7/97). (NGC ID# 2528, PCGS# 6997)
